God knows all things but weA
In darkness walk our waysB
We wonder what will beA
We ask the nights and daysB
-
Their lips are sealed at timesC
The bards like prophets seeA
And rays rush o'er their rhymesC
From suns of days to beA
-
They see To morrow's heartD
They read To morrow's faceE
They grasp is it by artD
The far To morrow's traceE
-
They see what is unseenF
And hear what is unheardG
And To morrow's shade or sheenF
Rests on the poet's wordG
-
As seers see a starH
Beyond the brow of nightI
So poets scan the farH
Prophetic when they writeI
-
They read a human faceE
As readers read their pageJ
The while their thought will traceE
A life from youth to ageJ
-
They have a mournful giftK
Their verses oft are tearsL
And sleepless eyes they liftK
To look adown the yearsM
-
To morrows are to daysB
Is it not more than artD
When all life's winding waysB
Meet in the poet's heartD
-
The present meets the pastN
The future too is thereO
The first enclasps the lastN
And never folds fore'erP
-
It is not all a dreamQ
A poet's thought is truthR
The things that are and seemQ
From age far back to youthR
-
He holds the tangled threadsS
His hands unravel themT
He knows the hearts and headsS
For thorns or diademT
-
Ask him and he will seeA
What your To morrows areH
He'll sing What is to beA
Beneath each sun and starH
-
To morrows Dread unknownU
What fates may they not bringV
What is the chord the toneU
The key in which they singV
-
I see a thousand throngsW
To morrows for them waitX
I hear a thousand songsW
Intoning each one's fateX
-
And yours What will it beA
Hush song and let me prayY
God sees it all I seeA
A long lone winding wayY
-
And more no matter whatZ
Crosses and crowns you wearO
My song may be forgotA2
But Thou shalt not in prayerO
